Shakedown 1979
Cool kids never have the time Luma,
live wire, right up off the street
You and I,
should we?
I will take it
Chewing bug, skipping like a stone
I will take it
The headlights pointed at the dome
I will take it
We should never see an end to it all And I don't even care
Shake these zipper blues And we don't know
Where our bones will
rest in dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed into the earth alone
I will take it
Double crossed, vacant and the born
I will take it
They're not sure just what we have in store
I will take it Morphine city,
slipping dudes,
dancing
And we don't even
care
As restless as we are
We feel the pull
In the land of a thousand gates
And
poor soul of man
Lamented and assured
To the lights in towns below Faster than the speed of sound
Faster
than we thought
we'd go Beneath
the sound
of home
I will take it
Justine never knew the rules
I will take it
Hungdown with the freaks and goons
I will take it No apologies ever need be made
I will take it
I know you better than you think
I will take it And we don't even care
Zipper blues And we don't know Where our bones will
rest in dust I guess Forgotten and absorbed into the earth alone
I will
take it
The street heats with urgency of sound
I will take it
As you see there's no one around
